La Fábrica

An attractive woman walking down Balmes street, a man from Barcelona, a doorman at the entrance of some house in the Eixample, anonymous pedestrians walking along the Rambla..., black and white images that tell the story of a city from a particular epoch in time. A "tremendous amount of compressed humanity" in eighty stunning photographs by Leopoldo Pomés, making up an overall view of Barcelona from the late fifties. This is a photographic project that lay dormant for more than half a century, stored in the drawers of a cabinet. The texts are in Catalan, Spanish and English.
